Uses of Barley

Barley is a versatile grain with applications across multiple industries. Below are the primary uses of the barley we supply:

Malting Barley

Malting Barley is the cornerstone of the beer and spirits industry. This variety is chosen for its high enzymatic content, which converts starches into fermentable sugars during the brewing process. Malting barley is processed into malt, which is then used in brewing beer, whiskey, and other alcoholic beverages.

Ideal Varieties: Two-row barley is the preferred choice for brewing due to its higher starch content and lower protein levels, leading to a cleaner, smoother taste.
Best For: Craft and commercial breweries, distilleries, malt houses.
Quality Standards: High germination rate, low protein (10-12%), high extract yield, and uniform size for consistent malting performance.

Animal Feed Barley

Animal Feed Barley is a valuable grain for livestock feed due to its balanced nutritional profile, offering energy and fiber. It’s particularly favored for feeding cattle, pigs, and poultry. Barley’s high digestibility and rich carbohydrate content make it an excellent feed ingredient.

Ideal Varieties: Six-row barley is commonly used for animal feed as it yields a higher grain count per plant and provides substantial energy and fiber.
Best For: Livestock producers, feed mills, and integrated farms.
Quality Standards: High digestibility, minimal foreign matter, proper moisture levels to prevent spoilage during storage.

Food-Grade Barley

Food-Grade Barley is increasingly used in health-conscious food products due to its rich fiber content, especially beta-glucan, which is known for reducing cholesterol. Food-grade barley is used in cereals, soups, baked goods, and health products. It’s also used in whole-grain and pearled forms in various recipes and processed foods.

Ideal Varieties: Hulless barley is often used for food-grade applications as it requires less processing and has a better texture and flavour profile.
Best For: Health food manufacturers, cereal producers, bakeries, food processing companies.
Quality Standards: Free from contaminants, properly cleaned, and processed to maintain nutritional value.

Barley Grading Details
